I decided in December that 2023 is going to be my best year yet. After all, I am turning 40 soon!!! Of course, as life likes to do, the first order of business of January 2023 was to throw a big curveball: flights cancelled from Miami to Philadelphia less than 2 hours prior to departure, …
After a few weeks off from the blog due to the BEST World Cup (Mundial) EVER and some holiday inpatient service time, I am back with some recommendations as we are once again getting ready to travel during a busy holiday season. We have been fortunate to be able to travel with the kids since …
I have always known that my brain is constantly planning the next move. I like Medicine because it forces me to really focus and stay present in what I am doing at the time. My brain is not able to take a life of its own and try to make my next to-do list. There …

Last week’s blog was all about easy and fun outdoor activities for the summer, but what happens when it rains? The activities listed below are fun and can also be done year round. I am definitely not a “cool” mom that wants to go play in the rain and I am sure I probably tell …
Since I moved to the Northeast, I realized I love summer a lot. I didn’t know that until I left Florida and discovered the brutal winters we go through in Philly and New York. It becomes even more important when you have kids because you can spend time outside instead of destroying your home and …
This post for everybody. It is not about being in a traditional relationship or in love. It is about engaging in diverse and meaningful connections with those around us. Before I started dating my current husband, I had pretty similar views to my previous partners. The same goes for my group of friends from college. …
I don’t know about you but the first week of 2022 was a bit more exciting than what I was hoping for. As usual, I was glad I wrote a bunch of inspiring posts because I was all ready to quit 2022 three days into it. Whenever I felt down or hopeless, I just re-read …
